The artist has given the full amount of his £25k award cash to the trust for venues, which functions to save the UK's grassroots live music spots.
The star was presented with the cheque on 16 October as his latest record the album was chosen as the outstanding release of the past year.
He has opted to give the cash to the MVT, in appreciation of the vital role small stages had in his initial steps.
"I personally wouldn't be doing my current career if it hadn't been for all the performances I performed around the area, and further afield, when I was beginning," said Sam Fender. "These venues are iconic, but they are struggling."
From early 2023 onward, over 150 of these spaces have permanently closed – roughly 16% of the entire UK sector.
Over the past year, well-known musicians including Pulp, Coldplay, Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all backed the MVT in its efforts to keep the scene afloat, by including a minor surcharge to their ticket costs, which goes to help independent venues.
Sam Fender also participated, raising over £100k on his live tour to help numerous local spots across Britain.
The money supported spaces that were confronting potential shutdown due to issues arising from flooding, fire incidents and personal losses, as well as regulatory hurdles, court cases and neighbor objections.
Some locations obtained financial assistance in modernizing amenities and technical equipment that directly benefitted artists and fans.
"The concept that funds from concerts in major spaces helps the smaller venues, where it kicks off for musicians like me, is just common sense," the star has said.
He is far from the only musician to donate his award winnings to worthy causes.
When they earned the award in 1996 for their album Different Class, vocalist the singer declared that the group would donate their prize money to the non-profit the charity.
During 2002, artist she divided her prize between a few good causes, including the children's charity and a Sickle Cell charity.
"I also gave a £1,000 to my local community centre, to their gymnastics program, because I trained in gymnastics when I was growing up and they required new equipment," she explained to outlets.
Two years ago, Ezra Collective contributed their funds to the youth organization that nurtured their act, in addition to other local music groups.
And the 1994 recipients the group contributed their award to a charity for MS after a friend was diagnosed the disease.
"Winning was quite enough," stated singer Heather Small. "The cash was the cherry on top but we could do without the extra, because we had the main prize. So our success impacted another person's life."
Last week, the trust shared it had rescued two small stages in south-east England, by transferring them to local control.
The first in Southampton and the other in the city were acquired under the public acquisition scheme, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who purchase "ownership units" in the properties.
